Moon Days

The mindful approach to moon phases

Full Moon / New Moon

In the tradition of Ashtanga Yoga, practice is not done on new and full moons.

On these days, the risk of injury is increased, and there is also a danger of overexertion. In respect and recognition of the Ashtanga Yoga tradition, we do not teach Mysore classes on these days. In the evenings (Saturdays & Sundays at 10 AM), a special class called “Moonpractice” is offered. This guided class reflects the qualities of Yin Yoga but is more dynamic at the beginning, and the individual positions are not held for as long. The “Moonpractice” is balancing and relaxing, making it a good complement to Ashtanga Yoga. These classes are suitable for all experience levels, and no prior knowledge is required. (Please refer to the detailed schedule.)

Rooted in tradition

Our Teachers

The essence of Ashtanga Yoga is passed on by experienced teachers who practice and teach in the tradition of Sri K. Patthabi Jois. These dedicated yogis guide you safely through the series and help you bring Prana into flow – physically, mentally, and emotionally. Their deep understanding, combined with their own practice, ensures that the original essence of Ashtanga Yoga is authentically preserved.
